albatrosses face a number of problems and if we zoom out from the chatham islands, we can see one of for the birds. along with plastics, fishing lines are also a major danger and so are pests like rats, that prey on young chicks. out of 22 species of albatross, 15 are under threat. the simple solution is to reduce the number being killed at sea and there are ways to restore their breeding sites as well, so what i am hoping in the future is that these satellite images will actually be able to show us that we are moving in the right direction for saving the albatross as a whole. this isn't the first time that satellites have helped conservationists. we can now track the wildebeest‘s migration from space. southern right whales have been monitored remotely, too, and the technology has even helped scientists to establish the size of penguin colonies. for the albatross, researchers now want to extend their territory to other nesting sites. knowing how many birds there are now will help us to track how they fare in the future. rebecca morelle, bbc news. time for a look at the weather. here'
